CT, MRI and SPECT, magnetic stimulation preoperative cortical mapping, and the
Intraoperative MRI (MR/T) Project with the General Electric Corporation

modified linear accelerator and the proton beam in the treatment of neoplastic, vascular
and functional lesions in the central nervous system
3) MR-guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery for the treatment of tumors (benign and
malignant), clot dissolution in stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage, neuromodulation,
creation of focal brain lesions, and precise targeted delivery of drugs and genes within the
brain.
4) Design of acoustic patterns and music, especially utilizing complex stereo
manipulations, to enhance alterations in transcendent states of consciousness.
